Lowered Laramie Sport

[csrr03]

Picked up my Laramie Sport from the shop last night, it was lowered 3” in front and 5” in the rear with a kit from Inez Hotrods. The front was done with upper and lower control arms, and the rear with springs and 4-link relocation. Tires are 285/45/22.

damn, I'm picking up my ram tomorrow and was planning on doing a 1/3 drop but this looks nice.

Who has the 1/3 kit?

Just had my maxtrac kit installed today anything that I should look out for definitely think the rear shocks could be better

I’m over a year on MaxTrac right now and I lowered the front 3” off the bat and now I’m close to 4”, rear was originally dropped to 4” but after settling, I’m at 4 7/8”. I have zero issues, no rubbing or anything. Bang for the buck, it’s a great kit! With the kit itself, no issues except for having to buy an adjustable rear trac bar to get the wheels aligned under the truck ( driver side was poking out a 1/2” compared to the passenger side. Just added 24’s, rides and looks great!

What trackbar did you get?

What trackbar did you get?

It was on Amazon, called freedom off-road.

Maxtrac installed I love it but has anyone installed Inez upper control arms to get the camber corrected

Thought about it but as long as the toe is good you won’t be wrecking tires. I’m set at 3” and after 1 year I’m at 3 3/4” drop in the front end. My camber is in the red by 1 degree but my caster and toe are perfect. It took me 3 alignment shops to get it right. But if you’re only down 2” in the front it should align to factory specs........

i have a 2/4 kit on order and would like to know

Should I have them do another alinement. Can this be corrected so I’m not wearing these tires out

Here’s mine from March, I measured the drop today for you as well, my front end is down exactly 4 inches now and the rear is 4 7/8. I set the MaxTrac coil overs at the 3” setting and they got everything in check except the camber. The place that was finally able to get it aligned is a high performance shop that drops rides all the time. I would get them to try again. But the main thing you have to worry about is toe. They were able to get caster in check even with the factory control arms, but to correct my camber would take getting control arms. I’m running 24x10 dub ballers and there has been no issues....

Here’s a picture of my negative camber at 4” drop. Also because I went so low in the rear after the car settled I needed to buy an adjustable rear trac bar. I personally love the camber, makes it look even lower lol!

I need to get my camber corrected. Not sure what I can do. I can’t find an adjustable bolt kit like my GMs had. The MaxTrac does ride great though!!

There is a company that makes offset upper ball joints: Spc performance. Mood makes one as well but if it’s past something like 3 degrees out your going to need to order Inez upper control arms....

Had my core 4x4 kit installed and I had the issue where the core 4x4 track bar would not clear the hellwig sway bar so I had to remove the relocation bracket that came with the 2/4 maxtrac kit wonder if this would be an issue with the wobble in the rear

Has anyone dropped their truck with the Air Suspension?

I'm about to go lower with an Inez kit using factory air suspension parts..

I can see were the front might work but what do you with the rear? I just installed the adjustable links and was able to lower both front & rear 1 1/4" at Entry/Exit. But I had to pull the bump stops out of the rear to get there. As it is at E/E there is only 1/2" clearance to the bump stop mount. Not sure how you can get any lower without bottoming out.

I'll post some pics tomorrow. I also get a measurement at Aero height.
